lexus lights

pitchfork · 9 Jul 2008 at 11:10

Why do people ruin their cars with lexarse taillights, I saw an M5 down asda the other day an E90, I nearly died when I saw the fool had put lexarse style lights on the back, looked awful.
I'm all for modifying, but the only thing lexus lights look good on is lexus, and even then they don't look good, they don't look god awful on lexus though.

I just couldn't believe someone could ugly up an M5 in that way.
I always thought it was just another chavvy "buy as many cheap parts from halfords as you can thing"

I've seen a few E60's with silly lights at the rear, makes me wonder if its a factory option as most were brand new and driven by old boys with cigars

the owner clearly likes them. they think the car looks nice with them. each to their own.

So, you saw a 3-series M5?

I don't understand why they're called "Lexus lights".
The only Lexus with tail lights that are ever remotely on the same planet as these monstrosities are those on the MK1 IS200.

The more you post the less I'm inclined to believe you ever really had an M5..

If my older step brother (21) gets a fiesta back (his 2litre mk1 mondeo is costing him too much, apparently), he's putting the lexus lights back on...as well as probably other stupid modifications.

I think I'll just keep the mini in the garage so it isn't associated with him

Clear rear-lights are an option on the E60 5-Series.

Yup - they feature in the accessories book. They're not a cheap option either :/

Now now, remember he only wanted a 320D as he loved the environment....

[TW]Fox · 9 Jul 2008 at 13:50

Was that the same guy? :eek:

Wolfchild · 9 Jul 2008 at 13:52

yarp

And was talked into a 330D or at least thats what he got instead of the 320D as i recall......but then, screw the environment mode....M5!

They are garish, transparent, blingy and crap.
